[Intro]
G | Em | D | D |

[Verse 1]
D
It's been a long time since the two of us were joined up as one
D
We had some good times for a few years we forgot to have fun
G                             Em                  Bm
Though splitting up was never what either of us intended
A
Now that's all past we're big and brave enough to try and be friends
G         Em
Dinner at your house

[Verse 1]
D
We sit around and have a drink, catch up on people we know
D
Although it's awkward I appreciate you having a go
G                          Em                                Bm
After a while your partner ducks out for a smoke and then he says
A
I'm tired excuse me if I stretch out on the sofa to rest
G         Em
Dinner at your house

[Pre-chorus]
           A          D           F#7
You have a weary look on your face...
G            E                A
As if you're not in the right place

[Chorus]
D          E
Happy? You say so
D             E
I would guess not though
D           G#m         F#m  C#m
It gives no pleasure to see.....
    G                        E
You look just like a hostage to me

[Verse 2]
D
He's fast asleep the TV's droning on about something boring
D
You flinch when he shouts to be quiet and then returns to his snoring
G                             Em                         Bm
You look embarrassed, whisper sorry as we clear away the dishes
A
A glimpse I wish I hadn't seen how your relationship is
G         Em
Dinner at your house

[Pre-chorus]
           A                 D   F#7
You have a weary look on you face...
G            Em                    A
As if you've ended up in the wrong place

[Chorus]
D          E
Happy? You say so
D             E
I would guess not though
D           G#m         F#m  C#m
It gives no pleasure to see.....
    G                        E
You look just like a hostage to me
D          E
Happy? You say so
D             E
I would guess not though
D           G#m         F#m  C#m
It gives no pleasure to see.....
    G                        E
You look just like a hostage to me

[Outro]
D
If he loses his temper, that easily
D
There's two good reasons
D
For me to worry
